Troilus and Cressida

Tonight we went to see Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida. It was really well done. First of all, the show is really good. We read it in class last week. But there was a slightly modern take on the costumes. All of the language, setting, and even weaponry were set in Troy, but the costumes were slightly more modern and interpretive. The stage was set up as a sort of runway that ran between two sections of audience seating. It was pretty cool. The actors all did very well, with the exception of one or two. I think what made the show awesome was first reading it and then comparing it to the interpretation we saw. Also, watching it made certain parts more clear. Overall an excellent production.
